Enumerator description in 1871 census- South Hackney, District 7

District 2 , District 3  , District 4

I thought it a little more interesting by following the enumerator along his or her steps as they listed the census for an area. Chosen is the District 7 of South Hackney in 1871. This is particularly to be able to list the relevant public houses, beer houses and taverns in Hackney; but more importantly to put the area of Hackney into perspective.

This is ongoing, and also helps to ensure all Public Houses are listed correctly, and ensure that road numbering changes that appear to confuse allow a better perspective of an area.

I think the enumerators description of this area is a good start - this relates to 111 census pages. I list a few of the entries along the way ........

"That part of the District which comprises the East side of Mare Street from King Edwards Road. The south side of Well Street round to King Edwards Road as far as St Thomas Road. Including Tryons Place and Court Coach Yard, Tudor Grove, Shore Road, St Thomas Road, Percy Road, Manor Road and Church Road."
